A new COVID-19 testing resource is opening today at the Rutherford Crossing testing site north of Winchester in the Stephenson area.
The testing site is located behind the Valley Health Urgent Care and Winchester Family Practice building at 160 Merchant St., Suite 200, Winchester, and already offers COVID-19 testing.
As of today, though, it will also offer Sophia 2 SARS rapid antigen tests through a primary care physician order, said Jason Craig, director of urgent care and employer health for Valley Healthâs central region.
âSome of the health care providers do have them in their offices,â he said.
Those that donât can refer their patients to the Rutherford Crossing site for testing so patients donât have to visit an urgent care center for a test.
